Tyson also took a savage beating when he was in his prime from Buster Douglas, who was a nobody.

that was after he got out of jail. i know i seem like a broken record because i'm repeating myself but he was a better fighter before he went to prison. plus buster douglas fought the fight of his life and i give him props for that. every dog has his day, right? i'm not saying tyson is the best fighter of all time but he is definitely up there. he's the only fighter i wanted to vote for on this poll. i would have voted for lennox lewis but he's not on there.

First of all, Tyson had a short week noticed when this fight ever occurred. If Tyson managed to trained at least 3 or 4 weeks, Buster Douglas would get his a ss beaten just like the other victims that Tyson punished.

It's an official: In 2005, Louis was named the greatest heavyweight of all time by the International Boxing Research Organization,[3] and was ranked number one on Ring Magazine's list of 100 Greatest Punchers of All Time.
 
It is located the last sentence on the first paragraph.

The ring magazine is a red/white/blue belt which describes as the real champion. Basically whoever has the ring magazine belt is the linear champion. No matter how many alphabet belts you got such as WBC, WBO, IBF, WBA, etc, your not the real champion without the ring magazine belt. Other boxers have title belts for being a top fighter and make career high paychecks, but ring magazine is the truth belt which overcome all belts.

Not necessary. There are some weight divisions who doesn't have the ring mazagine. The ring mazagine is usually vacant. Now, there are real champions even though they don't have the ring mazagine. The top contenders or known as the best fighters in that division with WBC, WBO, WBA & IBF belts the real champs.

In the boxing industry, it's corrupted. There are too many belts. The main belt I know by far is ring mazagine. Like I said before, the ring mazagine shows that your the linear champion in that division. Since the ring mazagine isn't popular for some reason, they use alphabet belts to determine who the champion. It could be 4 champions in one division. Does that sound right? Not to me. Boxing needs to go back in their roots when there use to had one championship belt: Ring Mazagine.

That's true, but there's no reason to have four belts to be the real champion.

naw Tuna there's 2 fighters that everyone dodged Butterbean and Ernie Shaffer. Ernie Shaffer couldn't get a fight until he was an old man thats why you probably don't even know who he was. both of them had mad punching power. BUTTERBEAN was fat but he could fight! Rocky Marciano was undefeated his whole career but some say he never fought anyone great?
